That doesn't seem right.

You would think that a job opening with The Washington Post for a Web Designer would be able to apply through their own job service, wouldn't you? Nope. You have to fax your cover letter and resume in to them. Not email. Not online applications at their own job searching website. fax. That just does not seem right. In fact, it screams wrongness. Why wouldn't you try and automate the submission process USING YOUR OWN SYSTEM? I mean, the phrase "eating your own dog food" comes foremost to mind.
